Talk:Bitmap/Bresenham's line algorithm

This popped up in my RSS feeds today, and may be a worthwhile additional consideration in this task. (Possibly as an extra-credit goal). Also, it's be good to have a better description of the algorithm itself on-page. --Michael Mol 16:09, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

I actually needed a Korn shell implementation of Bresenham's line algorithm today, so I decided to share it. No, I wasn't plotting a line; anytime I need to smoothly interpolate between pairs of values, I reach for Bresenham. In this particular case, I wanted to run N programs at evenly-spaced intervals in a cron job.
